"Brother Tingyu, I finally found you this time. Why did you come to the military camp without telling me? It's so hard for me to find you." Leng Xuefu muttered, her pretty face slightly pink,
The eyes looking at Gu Tingyu were even brighter.
"I have been busy with the war recently and accidentally forgot about this matter."
Hearing this, Leng Xuefu's eyes flashed with disappointment. She thought that brother Tingyu came all the way to see her.
"I thought you came to see me specially." Leng Xuefu curled her lips.
Gu Tingyu glanced at Leng Xuefu, "I have to leave first. If you are bored, go back first."
Hearing this, Leng Xuefu became anxious, "I won't go back. I will go wherever you go. Brother Tingyu, I don't like that woman."
"Nonsense!" Gu Tingyu shouted sharply.
Leng Xuefu was startled, then felt extremely wronged, "Brother Tingyu, I didn't mean to make you angry, don't scold me."
Gu Tingyu was silent for a moment and said, "I don't want her to stay with me, do you understand?"
A flash of surprise flashed in Leng Xuefu's eyes. Brother Tingyu actually hates Leng Shuang so much?
Thinking of this, she nodded quickly and said, "Brother Tingyu, I understand."
"It's good that you know, and you are not allowed to mention this matter again in the future." Gu Tingyu said indifferently, and after speaking, he strode towards the city gate.
Looking at Gu Tingyu's disappearing back, Leng Xuefu evoked a sinister arc.
Leng Shuang, you stole the man I like, just wait and see.
…
Night falls.
Leng Shuang washed up and then lay down on the bed to sleep. She had to recuperate her energy tonight and go find Gu Tingyu tomorrow morning. If Gu Tingyu was willing to take her in, she would stay with him. If he refused to take her in, she would find another one.
Find a way out.
With a "creak" sound, the door was pushed open.
Leng Shuang opened her eyes, and what came into view was Gu Tingyu's cheek.
"Why haven't you fallen asleep yet?" Leng Shuang sat up.
Gu Tingyu walked into the house, closed the door, and looked at Leng Shuang, "I came here to tell you that from now on you will be my personal bodyguard and will be responsible for my food, clothing, housing, and transportation. Are you willing?"
"Of course I do." Leng Shuang said happily, finally finding the opportunity to get close to Gu Tingyu.
"Well, that's good, go to bed early."
"Okay, I'll go to bed first, good night."
"Good night."
Leng Shuang closed her eyes, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She could sleep with Gu Tingyu tomorrow. She had already achieved what many girls dreamed of.
The next day, in the early morning, Leng Shuang woke up and ate something simple, then picked up his luggage and ran to the military camp.
She came to Gu Tingyu's bedroom and knocked on the door. After Gu Tingyu opened the door, he looked at Leng Shuang in front of him in shock, "Why are you here?"
Leng Shuang smiled lightly, "I said yesterday that I would come to serve as your bodyguard. I'm ready. Do you want to test me now?"
Gu Tingyu glanced at Leng Shuang and said nothing. He just moved out of the way and let Leng Shuang enter the house.
"My room is next door. You choose one. I will teach you some simple moves starting today."
"good."
After Leng Shuang entered the room, she looked around and then sat down at the table next to the window.
Gu Tingyu looked at her, then pointed to the chair next to him and said, "Sit."
Leng Shuang sat down obediently.
"What's your name?" Gu Tingyu asked.
"My name is Leng Shuang. My mother died early and I was the only one left in the family, so the villagers gave me this name."
"Well, Leng Shuang, you will be my personal guard from today on. You can come to me at any time, but I hope you won't disturb me."
"Okay." Leng Shuang nodded obediently.
The two of them were relatively speechless for a while, and Gu Tingyu didn't know what to say to Leng Shuang.
Suddenly, Leng Shuang stood up and knelt down respectfully to Gu Tingyu.
In front of me, "Gu Tingyu, please accept me. I really need a job to support myself."
Gu Tingyu frowned slightly, looking at Leng Shuang's fair and tender face, "What's wrong with your hands?"
"It's okay, I accidentally fell down."
"Leng Shuang, you are still young and not suitable for a job like a bodyguard." Gu Tingyu sighed.
"Brother Tingyu, please accept me. I can do it. I will work hard to become stronger and protect you. Don't worry, I will never hold you back." Leng Shuang said seriously.
Gu Tingyu looked at Leng Shuang, and a warm feeling flashed through his heart, "Since you are determined to be my personal bodyguard, let me start training you from today."
After Gu Tingyu finished speaking, he walked out of the yard. Leng Shuang bit her lip tightly and followed.
…
Half a month later.
Leng Shuang stayed in the military camp with Gu Tingyu. Although the amount of training every day was heavy, she still persisted.
During this time, she discovered that Gu Tingyu was very gentle and caring towards his subordinates, even more gentle and considerate than he was to his personal maid. No matter if she made a mistake or was tired, he would always hold her and coax her.
Gradually, Leng Shuang's eyes became more and more obsessed with him, and he admired Gu Tingyu more and more.
Gu Tingyu was really a good general, but she kept thinking of ways to escape him.
On this day, she followed Gu Tingyu out for patrol as usual. Suddenly, a luxurious carriage came speeding up, so fast that Leng Shuang couldn't react. She only felt the whistling wind in her ears, and then she flew out.
.
"Bang--"
"Pfft——"
The sound of heavy objects falling to the ground and the sound of blood spurting were intertwined, and Leng Shuang fell to the ground clutching her chest in pain.
"Shuang'er!" Gu Tingyu's pupils shrank suddenly and he immediately rushed forward.
"General Gu, the lady is injured, help her quickly!" A woman shouted anxiously.
Gu Tingyu frowned, then bent down and helped Leng Shuang up.
Leng Shuang felt that all the bones in her body were falling apart, her face was pale, and there were beads of sweat on her forehead, "Your Majesty... I... I feel so uncomfortable."
As she spoke, bright red blood overflowed from the corners of her mouth.
…
Gu Tingyu frowned as he looked at Leng Shuang's appearance.
"General, please take my young lady back for treatment quickly. If her injuries are delayed for too long, she may die." The maid urged anxiously.
Gu Tingyu glanced at Leng Shuang, pursed his lips, picked up Leng Shuang and turned to leave.
Leng Shuang fainted as soon as she entered the tent. Gu Tingyu laid Leng Shuang flat on the bed and checked her over. He found that she had a few scratches on her body, but the rest was not serious. He breathed a sigh of relief and then took out the golden sore.
The medicine is cold cream to stop bleeding and apply medicine.
After finishing all this, he helped Leng Shuang tuck the quilt into bed before exiting the room.
"Master." A secret guard dressed in black appeared behind Gu Tingyu.
"Send someone to guard this place. No one can set foot here." Gu Tingyu ordered.
"yes."
…
evening.
Gu Tingyu stood outside the tent and looked up at the sky, with a complicated look in his eyes.
After a while, the sound of footsteps came, and he stopped his thoughts and turned to look.
I saw Leng Shuang walking in slowly wearing a thick cotton-padded jacket.
"General Gu." Leng Shuang called respectfully.
"Come here." Gu Tingyu raised his fingers at her.
Leng Shuang hesitated for a while, then walked over slowly.
Gu Tingyu reached out and touched Leng Shuang's head, and said softly: "Silly girl, didn't I tell you not to disturb me? Look, your hands are frozen like this."
"General Gu, thank you for saving me today."
Gu Tingyu looked at Leng Shuang's pale face. After a moment of silence, he said, "I promised your parents to take good care of you, so don't be too polite. If you need anything in the future, just come to me."
"Um."
Leng Shuang nodded obediently.
Gu Tingyu took a deep breath and changed the subject, "You can stay here tonight. I will go back tomorrow and we will take turns."
"Okay." Leng Shuang nodded.
…
It's dawn the next day.
Gu Tingyu got up early to practice martial arts, while Leng Shuang lay on the table to catch up on some sleep.
"Shuang'er, you haven't eaten yet? Go and eat quickly." Gu Tingyu came over and patted Leng Shuang on the shoulder.
Leng Shuang rubbed her sleepy eyes and said, "General, why didn't you call me? I'm still hungry. Let's eat together later and I'll drink with you."
Gu Tingyu laughed and shook his head, "No, I have to rush back."
"Oh, okay, I'm leaving too." Leng Shuang said and left.
"Hey! Shuang'er, your injury has healed, why did it come out again?" Gu Tingyu chased after him and stopped Leng Shuang.
"My wound has almost recovered, and I'm used to it, so it doesn't matter." Leng Shuang grinned.
Gu Tingyu frowned and finally compromised, "Okay, pay attention to safety. If there is danger, remember to hide in the space. Don't show off."
"Well, I know, and so do you." Leng Shuang nodded.
Gu Tingyu stared at Leng Shuang for a long time before leaving.
"Miss, why are you so stupid? What are you doing? If something happens to you, what do you want the old lady and the general to do?" As soon as Leng Shuang returned, he was scolded by the old lady.
"I'm fine, mother."
"Alas..." the old lady sighed, "Why are you so stubborn? If you have any trouble, how can I explain it to your father and mother?"
"Mom, I just don't want to marry the prince. Don't worry, I'll be fine."
"Shuang'er, why are you so stubborn? You were born in ten months of my pregnancy. Don't I know you? You like Mr. Gu, right?" the old lady said.
Leng Shuang lowered her head, not daring to look at the old lady.
Leng Shuang's personality is relatively reserved and not good at expressing, so even if she likes Gu Tingyu, she has never said it in public, she just has a crush on him.
In this society where men are superior to women, if a girl likes someone, she would definitely be embarrassed to tell her about it, so Leng Shuang chose to secretly like Gu Tingyu. Even if the old lady found out, it would not affect her marriage.
When the old lady saw that Leng Shuang remained silent, she continued, "Shuang'er, in fact, mother has noticed it a long time ago. You like the prince, but Mr. Gu...hey...forget it, you can't force this kind of thing. Don't mention it again in the future."
It’s time for the prince.”
"Mom, don't worry, I know what to do." Leng Shuang raised the corner of her mouth and said, but deep bitterness surged in her heart.
